What are we good for...

...absolutely nothing! Well, that's not what I feel at all, but it kinda sums up my day of absolutely nothingness. I can believe I let myself sleep away all my weekends, but it's so nice! And my bed is kind of hugging me and wont let me leave!



I made myself some pasta today, with just garlic and some parmesan cheese (550 cals), couldn't finish it all at lunch time, so I've just been taking a fork full when ever I feel a little bit hungry. Been working out great, feeling kind of like a slobby bachelor, but hey who cares? So I have 150 cals to spare. I know there is a piece of chocolate in the fridge, about 50 cals, so I might let me to it soon!

Found a small database of low-cal recipes in my other computer that I've totally forgotten about, will probably start cooking through them soon. Especially on the days that my mum lives here (2 days/week), it's always nice to cook her something nice.

Tune in for some good recipes :)

Tomorrow we're having another lunch meeting at work, worked out pretty good last week when I ordered just a salad with no dressing, but the guy buying the salads has like no fantasy so it was way to boring! I'll try to give him better directions.

Planning on this:
Lettuce, 14 cals
Mung Beans, 30 cals
Crayfish, 60 cals
Ceasardressing, 50 cals

Total: 154 cals, pretty good for a lunch, I think! Almost like a ceasarsallad but with crayfish instead of chicken. Yum!

Don't know what I'll have for dinner though, I'll browse a bit and see what I'll come up with!

Men skinnier than me?!

Had a very unproductive day where I did absolutely nothing. I mostly slept all through it.
Then I had a very nice time at my bf's house, she was having a moving in party and I was invited for dinner before. She made homemade pizza! I felt pretty bad because I couldn't eat as much as I wanted of it, because it was delishious! I'm not really sure how many calories it was, but I figured that if a ordered pizza is about 1500 cals, I guess I had about 500 cals tonight. It wasn't anything too unhealthy on it, except the cheese.

The whole evening felt very international, we had representives from Belgium/France/Italy, the US and from Germany. It was great! I just got home though and it's just past 3:00 and I'm just gonna go have a long date with my pillows!

I don't know why I am so tired, I feel like I could sleep ALL the time! Maybe it's just because autumn is coming... I hope so! Speaking of autumn, I just realized that it is so much harder to eat low cal during the dark months here in Sweden. The whole food industry just turns on you and wants you to eat all these rich meat dishes with mashed potatoes (drool!). But I'll try to stay strong!

Oh shoot! I forgot to mention why my headline says what it does! Tonight, going home on the subway, I sat opposite to a man, I think he was about my age if not a lil bit older, and he was way skinnier than me. It kind of made me think, I envied him for being skinny, but I don't know if I could ever get together with a man skinnier than me. I don't really find it manly enough, not to step on any toes.

Oh... And I desperately need a smoke. All shops closed. Putain.

As I said... friday!

I've decided, that instead of counting veggies, I'll count them all up and drink them in stead.
I know it's really stupid and unhealthy, but heck... it's fun! =D

A bit (yea...right) tipsy right now and I'm just trying to post anything stupid or o say anything stupid to one of the guys I like... darn it!

Friiiday!

O my god, I need this friday so bad! My mind is in a million places at once and I'm exhausted!
If someone was to ask me what I've been doing this week I don't think I could answer.
Good thing I can refer to my blog!

I've been jolly good staying within limits though. Today I've had a thickened veggie soup (i'm starting to see a pattern here), only 100 cals, and three sandwich ham slices about 50 cals. Right now I'm gobbeling down some butter flavored popcorn, only 113 cals/serving, yey! Friday and all!

That leaves me 187 cals for later tonight if I need a snack... out of my absolutely empty fridge. Filling up time tomorrow I guess.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Fridens liljor!

First day at 24

So, been in school all day, had an oral presentation that I think went pretty well. I was so nervous so I don't really remember much of it!

Foods today was hard to chose, I put more strain on my braces yesterday so i couldn't have anything crunchy. Ended up with some pasta worth 390 cals, had it pretty late and filled up on coffee all day.
Not very healthy, I know, but I was so stressed out so I could barely think of food.

Tomorrow's limit is 500, I think I will have a soup at school, 290 cals. Thing is that I will be there from early morning 'til late night so I have to figure out what to have for dinner. Any tips?

I really miss the instant mash in a coup that I had in Brussels, it's flavored mashed potato that you just mix with hot water and it's like 200 cals. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Yum!

O well, bed time, I still have two books to finish!

Birthday...

No! I did not stay within limits! Birthday = splurge! Have people over, I'll tell you all about it in the morning! This is me!

Last day being 23

Alright, busy busy day! Was at work at 8 and worked til 17, then school and I just got home in time for homework! Gah! Bye life!

Bad choice in lunch today, because it was so high in cals so that it's all I'll have today :( Had some brie with salami on a salad, that's about 350 cals because I didn't have the bread it all was served in. I could have a soup now if I wanted, but I think I won't because of the huge mess up yesterday.

Don't really have the time to write more right now, homework due tomorrow.

'Night!

Sorry sorry sorry!

Sorry I havn't posted this weekend! I left my computer cable at the office so the computer has been dead. I've felt almost like a half person! Haha

Weekend was great, had a tad to much alcohol on saturday so I was a mess on sunday. But it was cosy just lying in bed with a friend and watching tv. We were supposed to go on a concert on saturday night, but the line was insanely long so we skipped in and went to play pool instead. Fun!

Food wise, I don't really want to tell, but yesterday I had half a pizza. I think that's about 1000 cals! Oops!
And I've been to busy to work out, I think I just will have to take it for what it is and move on. Forget about it. No more hung-over binging!

Write more later, work work work!

Rant...

Everything was fine a couple of hours ago, but now I just want to cry.
I don't know why. Maybe because the scale says one thing but the mirror another.

Merde!

Moment of truth...

... and I feel pretty good. I bought a scale today, and considering the last time I weighed in, it's not too bad! When I happened to step on a scale this summer is was like 10 kg over my goal weight. But apparently I only need to lose 5!  And I even over ate today! My best friend had a friend over from India who cooked for us. It was this amazing vegetarian meal. Main food was an eggplant stew that we ate with this potato stuffed bread! It was great! So great that I didn't care about cals or anything. I had 100 cals over from lunch, which was this nice Ceasar sandwhich, 350 cals. That would have left me with 100 cals. But I've decided not to turn home cooking down, at least when they've counted me in already!

But, even though the scale says one thing, my eyes says another! It's a new scale, mind you! I have no problem with my stomache, but my thighs.... woah! They're like flooding over. Even Noah and his arch would have been doomed!

I think it's because I havn't had any work out! I can't wait for monday night class to be over (3 more weeks) Because then I could actually work out and have fun!

Tomorrow is going to be fine! I'll be washing up and cleaning all day, that means, no time for heavy cooking! And at night I'll be going to this live concert in town. It's going to be great! If you havn't heard Yelle yet, check her out here: www.yelle.fr

Besides that, I'll have to buy everything for my birthday celebration on tuesday, I'm going to serve to bubbly and some nice snacks. Maybe wine leaf raps. Don't know yet!

Anywho, I'm tired and a bit drunk. I'm going to bed! See you all (I love that more and more are joining in!) tomorrow!
